Results of the quantitative analyses performed on the GC-MS data. A/P: ratio between the relative content of azelaic acid and palmitic acid; P/S: ratio between the relative content of palmitic acid and stearic acid; ∑dicarboxylic acids: sum of the relative content of dicarboxylic acids (azelaic, suberic and sebacic acids); weight%: measure of the degree of hydrolysis and degree of saponification – more details are reported in the text.
